What I thought you said was, "Were you guys any good?" as if you had just gotten there, were waiting for the next band, and were asking one of those questions that people sometime ask us just to see if they can throw us off-kilter and make us look stupid. People do that. I'm not sure why - maybe it's so they can show their friends or their girlfriend how, even though they're not on stage, they're cooler/smarter/more clever than we are. But for whatever reason, people do that. And you learn to have quick answers at the ready.
So, when I answered you by saying, "Of course! We were amazing!" I promise I wasn't being an arrogant asshole. I was just trying to have a good-natured response to what I thought was someone being a jerk.
Honest.
It was only after you'd walked away that I realized what you'd actually said and how my response must have sounded.
I looked for you the whole time we loaded out, so I could explain, but didn't see you again. (sigh)
On the upside, Johnny found my response hilarious when I told him about it later. He's very sensitive.
